Dental Implants

Do you suffer from severely damaged or missing teeth? Wondering if there is a permanent solution to your dental problem?

Missing teeth not only affects your smile it can also affect your quality of life. That is why we are proud to offer dental implants for our patients looking for a permanent solution to missing teeth. These implants allow the appearance and function of your smile to be restored.

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants function, look and feel just like natural teeth. They are comprised of a small titanium post (which serves as the artificial tooth root) and a crown which is attached to the post. The titanium posts are first attached to the jawbone, to provide stability. Once the posts have healed, crowns will be attached. In certain cases, bone grafting may be necessary before the titanium posts can be placed.

Why Dental Implants?

Having missing teeth can make it difficult to bite, eat and even speak, it can also increase your risk of losing additional teeth and bone down the road. When a tooth is dislodged, the bone that held the tooth in place is lost, it also decreases bone level near the area. This can cause spacing, alignment and stability issues in your remaining teeth.
